Abstract
We report a single case of invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD) by serotype 4, multilocus sequence type 10172 (ST10172) isolate with vanG-type resistance genes and reduced vancomycin susceptibility. The isolate was recovered during 2022 from a 66-year-old resident with bacteremic pneumococcal pneumonia within a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Active Bacterial Core surveillance (ABCs) site hospital. The patient had received 23-valent pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine and there was no evidence of concurrent or prior receipt of vancomycin in the previous year. Serotype 4/ST10172 IPD has shown increases within western ABCs sites, and the recent acquisition of a vanG element warrants close monitoring of this lineage.
